FERGUS – Every year, Fergus-based home automation company Station Earth holds a client appreciation day called Hot Laps, during which clients get an opportunity to run their sports cars on a professional racetrack to experience what their vehicles are truly capable of.

For the second year in a row, the event was used to raise funds for Groves Memorial Community Hospital’s oncology department.

The provincial COVID-19 restrictions were lifted just in time to allow a safe and socially-distanced outdoor event at the Canadian Tire Motorsports Park in Bowmanville.

“It was great to see our clients face to face,” said Station Earth owner Rowan Mclean.

“I was thrilled at the way they supported Hot Laps, which allowed us to once again give back to our community hospital. We were even able to beat last year’s donation by over $1,000.”

Lori Arsenault, executive director of the Groves Hospital Foundation attended Station Earth on July 27 for the cheque presentation ceremony.

“Our heartfelt thanks go out to Station Earth and their incredible clients for this generous contribution to our oncology department,” said Arsenault.
